At Home with Kurt Rasmusson (2009)

March 21, 2017

Snakebite are always digging up the gold from the past. Here’s a gem they just uploaded from 2009 that features Kurt Rasmusson get some riding time in around his family’s house. We’re not quite sure what this was filmed for originally, or if we ever saw the video when it first came out, but it’s a good one! Hit play to watch him shred their pool and a ramp setup he had. Kurt had a pretty short pro career and, if we remember right, he went on to be a cop. Either way, footage of this guy is always a treat. Enjoy!

“Dean Dickinson put together this edit of Kurt back in 2009 of him shredding around his house. Wish we could have seen more footage of Kurt but sometimes some of the best are in and out quick!”

“Insight” – Full Video

January 11, 2016

Ryan Navazio decided to release the entire “Insight” BMX video he worked on for Ride BMX that came out in 2007 online! This was a video that was stacked to the brim with talent from a lot of familiar faces and a few we haven’t heard or seen anything from in a couple years. Regardless, this one is an absolute MUST SEE. Especially for some of you younger guys just getting into BMX!

“Here is a look at four of my favorite lifestyle photos from a season of searching out pools about ten years ago and some stories to go along with them. Shot on 35mm Kodak Tri-X 400 film with a Canon 1N. Thanks to Dean Dickinson and Kurt Rasmusson to being fully committed to sniffing out all these gems back in the day.

Riding a pool is still one of the most fun I’ve ever had on a bike to this day and there will be more “Stories Behind The Photo” to come.” – Justin Kosman / Crooked World
